Mestni toplotni otok v Grosuplju

Štefan, Matevž (author), Ogrin, Matej (mentor)

Mestni toplotni otok (MTO) je klimatski pojav, ki nastane ob pozitivni temperaturni razliki med mestom in njegovo podeželsko okolico. V okviru diplomskega dela smo ta pojav proučevali na primeru mesta Grosuplje. Namen diplomskega dela je bil potrditi obstoj toplotnega otoka v Grosuplju ter ugotoviti njegovo intenziteto pozimi, spomladi in poleti. Intenziteto MTO smo ugotavljali s pomočjo maršrutnih meritev. Opravili smo 12 meritev, po 4 v vsakem proučevanem letnem času. Ugotovili smo, da je bila v našem primeru povprečna intenziteta mestnega toplotnega otoka v Grosuplju največja spomladi, in sicer 5. 4. 2026, ko je bila izmerjena največja temperaturna razlika 7,6 °C. Najmanjšo intenziteto MTO smo izmerili pozimi. Diplomsko delo predstavlja nadaljevanje proučevanja MTO v manjših slovenskih mestih in lahko služi tudi kot pomoč pri načrtovanju blaženja učinkov mestnega toplotnega otoka v Grosupljem.

• Title: Urban Heat Island in Grosuplje

Abstract

The urban heat island (UHI) is a climate phenomenon describing a positive temperature difference between a city and its rural surroundings. This phenomenon was studied using the example of the city of Grosuplje. The main purpose of this bachelor's thesis was to confirm the existence of UHI in Grosuplje and to determine its intensity during winter, spring and summer. To achieve this, we carried out 12 mobile measurements, which were equally distributed among the studied seasons. We found that the average intensity of the UHI in Grosuplje is highest in spring, specifically, the highest intensity was recorded on 5 April 2026, when the maximum measured temperature difference was 7.6 °C. The lowest UHI intensity was recorded in winter. The characterisation of the UHI in Grosuplje carried out as part of this bachelor’s thesis importantly contributes to the ongoing study of UHIs in smaller Slovenian towns. Furthermore, our findings can aid in the spatial planning of Grosuplje with a view to mitigating the effect of the UHI in the future.
